Study Abroad

Seton Hill offers two options for studying in other countries:

The Seton Hill Study Away Program Intensive courses taught in other countries by Seton Hill faculty, or in foreign universities with which Seton Hill has partnership agreements. These courses are usually offered during Seton Hill’s January term (J-Term) and May term (M-Term). (J-Term and M-Term are optional terms that allow students the opportunity to complete intensive 2 – 3 week-long courses.) Through the Study Away Program, students have the benefit of classmates and faculty as travel guides and companions.

Independent Study AbroadSeton Hill has cooperative study and exchange agreements with universities in other countries – such as a semester exchange agreement with the University of Córdoba in Spain – that facilitate independent study abroad. Seton Hill’s Study Abroad Office will assist students who wish to make plans for studying abroad through Seton Hill exchange programs or through programs offered by other universities or outside services.

Passport to the World

Seton Hill will pay for passports for students who complete a special project that guides them through the planning process for study abroad. This project requires students to develop a written plan for study abroad that covers everything from destination to financial considerations. The Study Abroad Office provides in-person and online resources to assist students in completing this project and applying for a passport.
